Alternative Splicing of the Basic Helix–Loop–Helix Transcription Factor Gene CmbHLH2 Affects Anthocyanin Biosynthesis in Ray Florets of Chrysanthemum…
2021
Chrysanthemum is an important ornamental crop worldwide. Some white-flowered chrysanthemum cultivars produce red ray florets under natural cultivation conditions, but little is known about how this occurs. We compared the expression of anthocyanin biosynthetic and transcription factor genes between white ray florets and those that turned red based on cultivation conditions to comprehend the underlying mechanism. Significant differences in the expression of CmbHLH2 were detected between the florets of different colors. CmbHLH2 generated two alternatively spliced transcripts, designated CmbHLH2Full and CmbHLH2Short. Compared with CmbHLH2Full, CmbHLH2Short encoded a truncated protein with only…

BIOTECHNOLOGICAL APPROACHES TO THE GENETIC IMPROVEMENT OF CHRYSANTHEMUM CINERARIAEFOLIUM L.
2011
The interest in sustainable agriculture has increased the demand of plant-derived compounds which can be less toxic both to mammals and to the environment than the synthetic agrochemicals. Chrysanthemum cinerariaefolium L. (Asteraceae), commonly termed pyrethrum, is an economically important crop from highlands of tropical and subtropical regions of the world. It is grown for the extraction of pyrethrins, natural insect repellents of plant origin. Pyrethrins are a mixture of six compounds produced by esterification of two acids (chrysanthemic and pyrethric acid) with three mono-terpene-alcohols (pyrethrolone-5, jasmolone-3 and cinerolone-4). The principale source of pyrethrins are the dried…
New acetylenes fromChrysanthemum coronarium L.
1990
The investigation of the aerial parts of Chrysanthemum coronarium yielded, in addition to several known compounds, two new acetylenic sulfoxides 9 and 10, and a new thiophene spiroacetal enol ether 11. Their structures were deduced by spectroscopic and chemical methods.
